SNK > Street Fighter

k

I simply cannot find fighting games enjoyable. It's the one genre I'll never understand. Every single game is 99% identical and it's just two karate men or anime girls whacking each other. The only one I ever liked was Ehrgeiz, and mostly because it's barely a traditional fighter to begin with and it had the Diablo style extra mode that you could play between the main game.

>>11908204
that's just because you never got deep enough into the games to actually learn the mechanics. theres a reason people autistically debate which of the 200 versions of street fighter 2 is the best, or why mk2 or umk3 is better, etc etc, tiny little mechanics added or left out, or even tweeks such as speed changes make all the difference in this genre

but it only matters if you actually play for real, aka learn everything, and fight other at least semi skilled human players

>>11908189 (OP)
I've been playing KoF98 and 02 on fightcade recently and these games are so sick. The sound effects are so perfectly crunchy and pleasant sounding.

Fuck off redditposter

>>11908215
I don't doubt you, the problem is that nothing about fighters has ever been endearing enough to make me even want to git gud. I can appreciate the autistic nuance of shit ranging from Quake to shmups, but fighting games are so fucking repetitive and banal that I can't imagine enjoying them enough to play on a meta level. I guess I could appreciate it more if you were a heavy arcade goer in the 80s/90s and the fun and adrenaline came from curbstomping some faggot regular at your local 7-11, but buying a PS1/PS2 era fighter and playing alone or versus some friends that sleep over every other week was always an experience of "alright, that was cool for 5 minutes, what now?"

>>11908204
>Every single game is 99% identical
you only think this is the case because you understand so little about the games
if you tried to tell anyone with a clue that samurai shodown and marvel vs capcom 2 are 99% identical, they would rightfully assume you're fuckin retarded

>>11908246
the true fun in fighting games comes from being reasonably skilled and knowledgeable and playing against others who are also skilled and knowledgeable. in such a situation the interaction between players becomes a high-speed series of layered mindgames punctuated by short rhythmic execution checks when someone finds the hit. it is anything but "repetitive and banal".
if you never did anything except casually mash buttons with friends, you're not going to see the appeal. you weren't even really playing the game. you were like a child who swings a bat around and thinks he played baseball.
please understand how absolutely moronic you sound when you say things like this. it's like saying to a chess player, "I don't get it, the board always starts in the same configuration and the pieces always move the same way, seems so repetitive and banal." you're entitled to your opinion, but if I were you, I'd keep this one to myself.

>>11908204
Personally I'm in a case were I want to enjoy them, get the aesthetics and appeals, and can see the large amount of variability and differences on many levels between even individual installments - and yet I'm such a mediocre player I can't game an AI, much less even hope to beat other people online, which makes them endlessly frustrating for me to try to get into.

>>11908271
AI are input-reading cheats in retro fighters.
If you want to learn to play an old fighting game your best bet is to make friends with some people who play regularly. there are shitheads in the fgc but many of us are willing to help new players out.
you won't be in a position to win against anyone except other new players for a long time though, so unless you can learn to enjoy the process of improvement in and of itself, it's not the genre for you.

I get the PS1 was big and Sega fucked the Saturn in the US, but man oh man, the PS1 really could not do most 2D fighting game ports right, most of them were pretty mid to mediocre regularly, at best they were just OK, and sometimes they were plain awful.

I'm Capcom's case lemme lay it down:

Alpha 1 - Good
Alpha 2 - Mid filled with bugs
Alpha Gold - Okayish?
Alpha 3 - Pretty Good with lots of extras but not Arcade accurate
Darkstalkers 1 - Good-ish (For a port made in the UK) but not accurate.
Vampire Savior - Dogshit
Children of the Atom - AWFUL done by amerifats
Marvel Super Heroes - Mediocre
VS. Series - Why they even bother?
Pocket Fighter - Average
JoJo - Good for an Impossible Port (Sucks they didn't try the PS1 Alpha 3 trick of Mirror Matching allowing more Frames per characters tough, and NONE of the exclusives from this port were used in the Dreamcast port)l or even a PSP Rerelease)

Now SNK..... Oh god....

Samsho 1 & 2 - Mediocre in spite of being done years later
Samsho 3 - A Fucking Mess
Samsho 4 - Average
Last Blade 1 - Mediocre
Galaxy Fight - The fuck happened to the sprites?
Double Dragon Neo Geo & Gowcaizer - FUCKING HORRIBLE and done by SAURUS.
Fatal Fury Real Bout - Average
Dominated Mind - Acceptable but Strip down port of RBS

Don't even get me started on the KOF ports, I played 98 and 99 and those almost made me cry.

Good thing I grew up my adolescence playing NeoRageClX

>>11908303
Framedata wise, PS1 Alpha 3 was the most arcade accurate port from that period. DC and especially Saturn ports were rebalanced.
I will never forget them for PS1 Alpha 2 port, that thing was clearly unfinished. No excuse after how good Alpha 1 port was.

BTW, arcade Alpha 2 mogs every SNK fighter except KoF98 which it is on par with.

>>11908268
I get what you're saying man, the problem is, I repeat, nothing about these games motivates me to explore the meta to begin with. Everything you say about "but bro, the game gets fun when you become skilled..." similarly applies to games that have 1000x more content. I don't think being good at a fighting game is any harder than being good at something like Quake 3 or Starcraft -- arguably even less so -- except those kind of games have vastly more content to engage with than a game where I'm forced to play against the same small pool of characters on the same small pool of levels over and over. I know this will probably upset you, but the hard truth is that mexicans and niggers love these games because they're like "getting good" at using a leaf blower or stocking shelves at BJ's. They're just incredibly repetitive experiences that get by on wrote memorization within heavily limited confines. If you enjoy watching the same two characters huffing and puffing while John Doe sprites soiface in the background, then more power to you. It just couldn't be me. I'm sure you'd kick my ass in any fighting game just like I'd kick your ass in any shooter or RTS, but the difference is that when the match is over, I have something to look forward to other than Musato Miyashi versus Kenjiro Soibean sparring in New Orleans for the upthousandth time while MIDI acid jazz plays. Different strokes, I guess.

KoF series always had the better soundtrack

>>11908320
>Musato Miyashi versus Kenjiro Soibean sparring in New Orleans for the upthousandth time while MIDI acid jazz plays
This but unironically. Kino

>>11908350
Only Kof94, 96 and 98 have good music.
Meanwhile, SF2-SSF2, Alpha 1 and 2, all SF EX games, SF3 and 2nd Impact all have excellent soundtracks.

>>11908235
SF is definitely the most reddit fighting game
>has things like "zoomer tiktoker stereotype" and "hipster abraham lincoln"

SNK has too many zesty characters.

if you actually played any fighting games with real people you would enjoy both

>>11908320
>fighting games don't have enough characters, I prefer games like Quake 3 with 9 guns or Starcraft with 3 races

>>11908303
its really easy to tell you were just playing these against the cpu and probably dont even know basic combos or footsies

>>11908320
Your opinion would be respectable if you didn't just stop at "I don't like this." I don't get why you have to start shitting on the genre after having the appeal explained to you. You frame the stuff that you don't like as objectively negative traits when it's just something you don't like.

>>11908320
>incredibly repetitive experiences that get by on wrote memorization within heavily limited confines
This dude has never played a fighting game outside of mashing buttons like a retard, lol.

>>11909480
don't feed the trolls

>>11908189 (OP)
But is it better than Darkstalkers? Since you're comparing an entire company's output to a single franchise from another...

>>11908246
>I can't imagine opinions that differ from my own
This is the surest sign of autism, anon.

I love the way SNK games feel, every input and animation is fast and intuitive, much more than any Capcom game I've played. I don't have to memorize canned combo strings to link attack animations together smoothly.

>>11909501
Darkstalkers isn't that good, it's ruined by the random rng button mashing push block mechanic. Vampire Saviour 2 would be in the upper tier of Capcom fighters easily without it, but because of it Rival Schools is better

Like the original SF having pressure pads, it's an interesting arcade novelty that crippled the game post arcade era. People like DS because of the cool art and characters but it's not a top tier fighter

That doesn't make much sense as a statement, are you trying to say SNK > Capcom?

>>11908928
How is Iori the first example you thought of when this faggot exists

>>11909874
Vampire Savior 2 isn't even the best Vampire Savior, much less the best Darkstalkers game or the best anything else.
Furthermore nobody complains about push guard, they just learn to piano.
Stop talking about games you don't actually play, you ignorant faggot.

>>11908320
Not only has this guy never played fighting games, he's never played Quake 3 or StarCraft either.

>>11910023
I do play it, I could easily kick your ass with Lord Raptor, Q Bee, or even Talbane. Fuck off back to /a/ 00s kid scrub, or stick to Turd Strike.

>>11910023
>learn to piano
Aw, what gamefaqs article/youtube video told you this would work? Lmfao. You can't do it by pressing buttons individually, it literally needs to be so fast that you have to mash multiple buttons at the same time back and forth, go play the game for real poser

>>1191002
no you don't and no you can't.
you already exposed your larp by saying shit nobody who plays vsav would ever say. don't embarrass yourself by trying to force it.

>>11910032
you don't know how the mechanic works and you have never played vsav at all, much less attempted pushblock in it.
you're probably the same fag but I guess it wouldnt surprise me if two dipshits were in here larping. it's all anyone on this board does these days.

Rerelease KoFXI

>>11909526
I've always found SNK games more fluid, inputs flow into one another more. Longpress might play a part here. I also think you do two-in-ones a little later in SNK, whereas in Capcom it's on the beat of connecting the previous button press. Capcom by contrast is stiff, precise, but can feel restrictive--light confirms in their games are particularly rigid with something like ST basically necessitating a buffer and 3S' crackhead speed lights making me feel like I have to mash the shit out every time.

One thing I always liked about SNK games is how stingy they are with i-frames compared to Capcom. Some characters still have them and are to be respected, but it's funny when somebody tries to mash out just any old super and eats a meaty for their trouble.

>>11910042
>oh shit i'm btfo what do i do
>uhhhh guess I'll bring up some irrelevant non sequitur bullshit
good job.
better luck next thread.

>>11910043
I know exactly how it works because I got hardcore into the game casually years ago, then wanted to learn how it worked so I could actually get to the competitive level and it's bullshit, you literally have to move your hand over all the attack buttons back and forth

There is no "piano" motion that's gonna work consistently, whether it works or not is fucking RNG, to do it at a competitive level you need to be furiously moving across the buttons. You might play but if you do, it's only at a casual level and you don't actually get the desired result like ever, because even doing the technique I described doesn't ALWAYS guarantee it's gonna work, you're either casual or just looked up shit but don't play at all/haven't done it

>>11910049
this is exactly how it works, the other anon never played it. it's well known people have tried for years to master a technique that works well when not using the actual arcade cabinet because even home sticks aren't stable/heavy enough to do it

>>11910049
>got hardcore into the game casually
lmfao. retard.
>whether it works or not is fucking RNG
not completely, each successive button press increases the odds up to a certainty. if you actually knew anything about the game you'd know that, but since you're larping - based probably on some dumb youtuber's ignorant opinions - you don't.
Final (YOU). Better luck next thread.

>>11910049
you don't know shit lol. picrel from mizuumi.
>hurr what's mizuumi
as stated: you don't know shit lol.
you have a 14 frame window to pushblock. if you can't piano six button presses in 14 frames you may legitimately have cerebral palsy.

>>11910058
>>got hardcore into the game casually
>lmfao. retard.
Yeah, meaning I never played it because literally nobody did in the 90s, we were playing SF, MK, Marvel, and Tekken. I only played it once I got into arcade emulation and yeah, at first it was just a cool game then I looked up all the mechanics of the game, learned how to do it, and it is exactly what I said. You don't do it right because you can't "piano" fast enough to do it, you're not the fucking Flash

>>11910050
Obviously

>>11910050
quit samefagging, nobody's gonna fall for that lol

>>11910064
why are you replying to yourself lol

>>11908970
>You can just sweep your way into MK2 and UMK3 guys

Eat a thousand dicks, you are just mad you can't come up with good answers.

As far as "alternative to the main one with weird gimmicks" goes, SNK still wins because Samurai Shodown is way better than Darkstalkers

>>11908970
No nigga, did you even GREW UP during that era? Or were you just born in 2005?

I fucking hate all this stick-up-the-ass elitism. It's always been a fighting game thing but it's been impossible for there to be so much as a single thread on this god forsaken site on the topic where it doesn't wind up pervading the entire thing. Do zoomers think they're practicing arcane arts for not being around during the heyday and picking them up after the fact? Quit being a snowflake about how good you think you press buttons, nobody fucking cares. Learn how to have constructive conversation or fuck off.

>>11910086
It's mainly all revolving around one guy who gets assmad whenever non Capcom games are discussed, and he mostly only plays Third Strike as most zoomers do

>>11910050
>home sticks aren't stable/heavy enough to do it
To press six buttons quickly? Like literally just drum your fingers twice on either row.
My man you are absolutely fucking retarded. Way too stupid to sell this larp.

>>11910086
when faggots stop making shit up and pretending they played the games when they haven't, I'll stop correcting them.
simple as.

>>11910114
You can't "drum" them, you idiot. Again, you don't do it right, you never actually execute the mechanic like top players do, you're not good at the game.

>>11910086
>elitism is when you call out people for complaining about games they haven't played

>>11910150
You're being called out as a casual/wiki reader and not a player, and it's true. You can't compete in DS/VS, you play casually at best but nobody believes you even play in the first place.

>>11910135
I don't understand the point of this. Everyone who actually plays fighting games knows you're just making shit up and none of it is true or even makes sense. So who are you trying to fool exactly? People who also don't play the game you're pretending you've played? Except that's stupid too, because why would they care about anything you're saying?
You people are really fuckin weird, man.

I always found the SNK characters to be way more interesting

Street Fighter doesn't intrigue me in the same way it does.

>>11910151
>I can't detect sarcasm
you're retarded.

>>11910185
>he doesn't realize he makes his ignorance apparent in the things he chooses to be a smartass about
Nope! That'd be you, retard.

>>11910180
You don't play the game because you can't use the technique with any accuracy, if you do play you're in the bottom percent of players

>>11910190
you're deeply confused. because you're retarded.

>>11910046
SNK games always catered to the more seasoned fighting game person, Capcom was for the general masses.

>>11910196
OK! Let's recap
>I point out elitism (this thread smacks of it)

I'm A rank in Vsav on fightcade.
I just want to know why you do this. I truly don't understand the reason why you're larping.

>>11910183
I feel the opposite way, SF characters are more colorful and bombastic than SNK’s.

>>11910204

I'll hop on Q3 right now. Let's play q3dm5 and I'll plasma climb over the middle bridge to troll yellow and red armor and then fistfuck your anus with spawnkill rockets. The absolute nerve of a mexican telling me I've never played Quake or gookclick, man oh man.

>>11910232
>I feel the opposite way, SF characters are more colorful and bombastic than SNK’s.

I also feel this way, but the SF characters feel too surface level to be interesting, whereas the character design in KOF seems to suggest that there is something deeper there.

Nah, fuck you, suck a fat cock. All this, "YOU don't play, *I* play, I'M the special boy who plays fighting games and not YOU" is something that plagues any conversation around this genre and it's fucking annoying. And that's what elitism is, dipshit. I don't have a side in this fight because I know nobody fucking cares. Now if you're done getting giddy over internet posts like your ease of amusement doesn't make readily apparent who the real retard is here, how about you fuck off?

>>11910086

>>11910270

You're not bright.

No fighting game ever can match Last Blade 1 or 2 for me.

if someone is making shit up and spreading outright bullshit as though it were fact, there's nothing elitist about calling it out.

>I fucking hate all this stick-up-the-ass elitism. It's always been a fighting game thing
RTS and to a lesser extent FPS have the same level of elitism.

>>11910291
>fighting games have tiny rosters
>let's play quake instead and use only one gun
lmfao. retard

>>11910332
We don't need to use one gun, we could use all the guns. We could even use no guns -- want to have a quad damage gauntlet wank? How would you like to play? Randomized pickups? Flight enabled by default? Low gravity? Excessive? Instagib? Are we playing stock or Team Arena? Are we using vanilla config, are we using CPMA-standard? What's your FOV? Do you use smoothclients? r_roundimagesdown? Low poly? Shadows on or off? What's your railtrail time setting? Do you even know what any of this means?

I state this sincerely: we could play a single map on Quake 3 for the next decade, and with the plethora of options at our disposal, there would be more depth found within than your top 10 favorite fighting games combined. I know you're a console shitter so the idea of having multiple game modes and command line options (to say nothing of physics quirks and several hundred config settings) is unthinkable, but just because I can accurately describe how I'd rape you on a particular map doesn't mean we couldn't throw some extra confetti into the party.

Confirmed for never played Quake 3, this is a meaningless word salad. There isn't even a "middle bridge" on that map.
100% this guy had ChatGPT tell him what to say. The prompt was probably "what can I say to convince people I know a lot about Quake 3"

Hi, redditposter

Middle bridge is the middle of the bridge between rail and red armor where yellow armor spawns above rocket. You'd get it if you had actually played the game and were familiar with the vernacular.

>>11910431
>>11910081
major apples and oranges
I play SamSho when I want my neutral and conditioning to win me games, I play VSav when I want high mobility and dirty mixups and to press a lot of buttons
Which one is "better" is purely a matter of taste, it's not like comparing KoF titles or SF2 revisions

>>11910441

I am yet to see an SNK fighter that is as good as Alpha 2

>>11910448

>>11910457
to each their own. personally I don't really like A2 as much as most do, to me it's just Super Turbo with CCs. Alpha sprites look damn nice though.

>>11910452
Last Blade games are Samurai Shodown for normies i.e. without the trademark SS high risk gameplay but with cool backgrounds to goon at.

>>11910458
It's obvious you haven't played Quake 3, anon, you don't have to spell it out for us.
Can you stop making word salad posts cobbled together out of things ChatGPT told you to say? It's fooling nobody. Thanks.

>>11910472
that's pretty reductive. aside from aesthetic factors it doesn't resemble SS at all really, especially with the speed/power system.

>>11910484
>I'm a faggot, and I know I have no argument, but you insulted my Zoolander games so I'm going to keep being gay
Alright bro, good night.

Fighting game threads on /vr/ are completely trash, there are like three people on this board who actually play fighting games and the rest of you retards just give your dumbass surface level takes based on little to no understanding of the games, goodnight HULKAMANIACS and jabronie marks without a life that don't know it a work when you work a work and work yourself into a shoot, marks

>>11910490
Exactly but it isn't as distinct as SS too. Last Blade doesn't stand out in any way other than having nice graphics.

Whatever, faggot.

>>11910505
I disagree that it's automatic like that, 09ers can be knowledgeable about FGs. Hell even 16ers. It's just that very few actually knowledgeable people ever post in these threads. It's all people who casually mashed with their friends a couple times, or as you said, learned everything they know from YouTube.
I saw some shit a while back in one of these threads where three or four retards were arguing that a 10f hit confirm was one of the easiest things in its game, all clearly failing to realize that "hit confirm" did not mean what they thought it meant, and only one anon had the slightest clue and tried to rebuff them.
Shit's embarrassing frankly.
>>11910507
That dude is one of the retards who doesn't know anything about fighting games.

>>11910517
You're talking about me in both responses, only one is direct lawl.

I'm the fighting guy guy of this board for the last ten years, you're all new and all gen z, cope.

If you didn't play fightcade til fightcade 2, you're too new to have an opinion.

>Every shit poster in fighting games threads who turns them to shit
It's the redditposter MK fag who cosplays as terry and doesn't play fighting games

>>11910591
No I think it's the asshurt Asian guy from the coast who laprs as American despite being from Cali, larps as a millennial despite not being born before the 00s, and who hates MK and SNK because the only games he plays are Capcom, aka a poser not in the scene.

>>11910602
capcom is the scene dumbass. mk is for casuals and snk is for illegal immigrants

>>11910587
Holy shit, this retard literally asked ai to draw himself but make him ripped instead of fat, fucking lmao

>>11910605
Lmao
>capcom is the scene
Holy casual, Capcom literally only has four good games. SF2, SFA, Marvel1, and Rival Schools.

You don't play very many fighting games, you're not really a player, and you didn't grow up with this genre.

>>11910198
>SNK games always catered to the more seasoned fighting game person, Capcom was for the general masses.
That's the exact opposite of what actually happened with SNK and Capcom, though. SNK fighters were known for a breadth of options for skilled players to make use of, but with plenty of shit to do for casuals that just rode up to a cabinet to make sparks fly. Capcom games were a lot more strict, precise, and had the infamously ass-tight timing for certain commands or the early SF3 parries, and generally became known as the games that were all about mastery and pro play.
There's a reason why SNK fighters took South America by storm since there was just such a massive and open broad appeal for less buttons, but so many teams, characters and actions.

>>11910625
You've only played MK on Sega Genesis in the 90s when I went to arcades, you're not one to talk about the scene, boy. Your scene started with fightcade which has more brazillians than white people.

>>11910639
You hate MK, and you're a zoomer. Keep LARPing.

Tell you what, post photos proving you're over 30, and post your chart of top fighting games. I have done both. I am telling the truth, because I prove it, you make shit up and hide, cowardly eastern tactics, this is why you get bombed.

Weirdo

>>11910654
It doesn't matter which retard, they're all decent games. But those are the only ones better than any games from other developers. SFIII sucked in the late 90s and it still sucks, so did EX and every other series since

MK has unironically been better than SF since SFA, and SNK and Tekken have been MILES better

You don't play fighting games.

>>11910660
EX and EX2 were much better than their contemporary MK4 and Gold. SF attempt at 3D mogged MK's.

>>11910660
>MK has unironically been better than SF since SFA

>>11910681
This was a chad game, SF4 was ok, and 5 and onward were worse than even nu MK which at least, shitty lore elements, were innovative and fun short term despite never reaching the high of MK9, SF hasn't been good in forever it's just like the MCU, kept alive by ghetto brand loyalists who like the wokeshit

>>11910680
I disagree, that's why no 3D SF character has come back and why nobody even talks about those games nostalgically, none of us have nostalgia for them. We do have nostalgia for MK4-Deception though.

>>11910645
>he replaced RBS with RB2 and MK2 with UMK3 in the pic that he used to spam a lot to appear less casual
Zero integrity

>>11910685
>that's why no 3D SF character has come back
They belong to Arika, Capcom can't use them
>none of us have nostalgia for them
>"us" fagging
I have nostalgia for them, I saw other anons having nostalgia for them. Also they were rated much higher than MK4 and Gold at the time
>We do have nostalgia for MK4
Never saw it. Someone made a couple MK4 threads here recently but got shat on
>Deception
Different era, different decade. I am talking abou 1997-99, the MK4-Gold era. Deception is a fucking Tekken 5 contemporary.

>>11910702
>nothing changes!
MK2 among the MK fanbase is the hardcore choice, UMK3 is the casual one, but you're not on the MK message boards. I haven't played MK3 in like a decade, but people on this board singing its merrits made me revisit it with my irl friend(something you don't have) and I was like yeah, I'm really enjoying this again.

As for RB, I got into all the Real Bout games in the last five years, my favorites have been rotating but now I favor RB2, the lane system being better I think makes it so.

>>11910712
Ratings mean nothing. Not in music, not in games, not in film.

Holy shit kill this faggot for once

>>11910724
>MK2 among the MK fanbase is the hardcore choice, UMK3 is the casual one
Holy fucking KEK you're larping as a MK fan too. MK2 has never been a comp standard, UMK3 is

>>11910731
>capcasual crying over mk and snk fans
Lmao

>>11910735
MK fans don't care about the "fgc", you're confusing MK fans for autistic black/chinese guys who like SF and maybe one MK game.

>>11910736
>mk and snk fan
>only discovered rb games a few years ago
>didn't play umk3 competitively, only "revisited" it recently
You're not a fan you're a poser and a casual

This guy is the same retard spamming trash in shmup threads. What a faggot

>>11910746
MKIII (among actual MK fans) has been hated for years for being the sellout point of the brand, where it adopted the loathed dial-a-combo system, unmasked sub zero, and had urban stages called "for black people" as opposted to the kung fu/occult stages it had strictly before

I have been a figure in the MK fandom since the 90s, making big trades for action figures and comics when I was in my 20s even as a major person, you're not from this fandom,

As for RB, I'm American, SNK had no popularity in the West casually and anyone saying different is LARPing or from a nonwhite neighborhood in California, and I'm from the Midwest.

>>11910749
>As for RB, I'm American, SNK had no popularity in the West casually
this is obvious, the fact that people are saying this isn't true is insane lol, snk games are good but they weren't well known, their animes were more widely viewed than the games were played.

>>11910749
>blah blah blah
I played MK2, MK3, UMK3 and MK4 in arcades when they were new. I never stopped playing UMK3 competitively. I am more MK fan than you are. You're the fan of MK comics and action figures, not the games.
I played RB1, KoF95 and Samurai Shodown 2 in arcade too. Later RB games and KoFs didn't arrive here but I played them all in 2001 via emulation and a year later me and my mates invested into a MVS supergun to play KoF games locally. We are more SNK fans than you are, zoomer who played with consoles and action figures until fightcade appeared.

>>11910769
I look like a zoomer? Thanks, the white hairs in my beard kinda say otherwise but I'm glad you think I look young.

And anyway, you don't like MK. MK fans love the entire franchise, it's what makes us and our AMERICAN game better. You're a casual.

>>11910660
>It doesn't matter which retard, they're all decent games
Name key differences between the SFA, SFA2 and SFA3 mechanics. I don't believe you know what you are talking about.

>>11910780
You name them to me, casual. But yeah every SFA game is actually good, and every SFIII game is actually garbage.

>>11910778
>playing arcade MK competitively since 1994 is more casual than playing with MK action figures

>>11910792
In the MK fandom it is. You're casual unless
>you played every game
>you had the toys
>you had the comics
>you know all the lore
>you dressed up as a character at least twice for halloween
>you can recite every line of the 1995 movie
We're not your breed, the fact that you think we are, outs you as a MK kasual. Most OG MK fans hate Japshit outright.

>>11910783
>You name them to me, casual
I didn't lump all SFA games together, you did. And apparently you play SFA3 the most. Don't fucking tell me you don't know the difference. Do you even have any integrity left here on this board?

>>11910806
There are big differences, but they're still all good games. I like SFA3 the most because the most badass SF thing period was this poorly written anime and A3 was based on it with the edgy rock influenced tunes and Bisons stage mimicking the final movie scene.

That being said, it's the most unbalanced and the isms bring cheapness to the table, I don't care though it's by far my most played SF game and still fun. I don't think people are dumb for preferring A2, not many people favor the original, but it's still not a "bad" game even if it's the most pointless one to play.

What a retard

>>11910798
8 out of 9 games in your top list are japshit. I won't comment about the rest of your post, it's just perfectly faggy as is.

>>11910828
So what, I didn't say I hated Japshit fighters. I said most MK fans do.

>>11910815
I said "key differences between the mechanics". Not which one is based on what anime or music genre. It's okay, I have already realized that you have only a surface knowledge about fighting games mechanics. It's a shame that someone who spends so much time arguing about fighting games is so bad at them.

>>11910849
Idc to prove anything to you, you won't hop on fightcade when I download fc2 aka zoomer edition but if you do, you'll get stomped in SFA3

>>11910852
Post your id

>>11910859
I haven't played since FC1, I'm not a zoomer. When I do dl the FC2 roms, and I will, you'll get stomped.

What a pathetic attempt at trolling. It's the kind of tryhard you love to laugh at.

>>11910863
Post the id that you used with fc1. I'll check your stats

>>11910869
DR it but you can just say I don't want you to see it, and wait till I stomp you on zoomercade. Have patience ADHD fake autism fent addict.

>>11910685
SF4 single handedly revived the market for 2D fighters. MK9 was the best MK had been or would be for years but it was still lanky and stiff like all NRS games to follow it.
you never played SFV, you just swallowed meme opinions about it.
SF6 is almost universally loved while MK1 is actually dogshit so literally what the fuck are you talking about.
You do not know what you're talking about. You do not play fighting games.

>>11910685
>that's why no 3D SF character has come back
No you fucking retard, they haven't come back because they're owned by Arika, not Capcom.
In fact, they DID come back, just in Fighting EX Layer.
Poser.

>>11908189 (OP)
LOL, no you loser.

>>11910780
there aren't any differences they're just the same game with 1 or 2 new characters and stages just like all of capcom's endless re-release shit

>>11911187
Why did you expose yourself like that?

>>11911202
All I exposed is that I know more about street fighter then you

>>11911187
>t. didn't play the games

wow huge mechanical change such different

Nope.
Lurk/play moar.

>>11911356
yep.
try actually playing the games instead of just watching youtube videos.

>>11911342
Jesus. Play the games, retard

>>11911395

there are no significant mechanical differences between the Alpha games. You'd know this if you ever once played them.

Fuck off poser. The fact that you don't know something that's common knowledge among SF players exposes you as a total shitter and non-player, plain and simple.

>>11911604
>posturing instead of naming even a single one of these alleged massive mechanical differences
you don't because you can't, because there aren't any. It's not a choice on your part.

NTA but you are in fact retarded and don't play SFA

>>11911627
I play SFA more than all you posers who can't even state one fact about the games.
